Carbo - hydrate. Glucose is a common carbohydrate that will show up again and again as we discuss cell chemistry: its formula is C6H12O6. Table sugar, sucrose, is two single sugars bound together: a disaccharide simple sugar. Sugars can be anything from a single sugar molecule up to several bound together.
The two sides of the DNA molecule are Deoxyribose and phosphate these two molecules are what make up the two sides of DNA.
Part I - Components of DNA - DNA is made of three types of compounds. 1 â Phosphate groups which are negatively charged and give DNA molecules a negative charge. 2 â A 5 carbon sugar, deoxyribose (hence the name deoxyribonucleic acid). There are two sugars found in nucleic acids; ribose is found in RNA (ribonucleic acid) and deoxyribose in DNA.
